In a recent report<\/a>, Fichajes revealed that Manchester City<\/a> are eyeing a move for Chelsea<\/a> star Cole Palmer this summer. It has been stated that the Mancunian giants are planning to move in for the England international in this transfer window.<\/p>\n

Palmer\u2019s Impressive Form In English Football Last Season<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Palmer enjoyed a decent run of form at the West London club after he put in a series of impressive displays for them in the final third. The English talent participated in 52 matches for Chelsea last season, scoring 18 times and earning 14 assists on all fronts.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old was a reliable performer in the final third as he averaged 3.41 shots per 90 minutes in the Premier League<\/a>. He kept 36.4% of his attempts on target. Palmer was even tidy when distributing possession in the opponent\u2019s half based on his pass completion rate of 77% in league football (stats via fbref.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Palmer is under contract at Stamford Bridge until the summer of 2033. Hence, Man City would have to launch a massive offer if they are serious about luring him to the Etihad Stadium this off-season.<\/p>\n

Is Palmer A Dream Signing For Manchester City?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Palmer is a good dribbler with the ball at his feet and can make some driving runs with it out in the wide areas. He can strike the ball with power from long range and has got the eye to play a few decisive passes on the offensive end of the field.<\/p>\n

The English sensation can chip in by scoring and creating his fair share of goals up top. He is primarily an attacking midfielder but can also fill in as a right-winger or as a centre-forward if needed.<\/p>\n

We can expect Palmer to add more firepower to Man City head coach Pep Guardiola<\/a>\u2018s attack. He is good enough to help Man City challenge for a lot of major honours over the next few years.<\/p>\n

At 23, Palmer has his peak years ahead of him which makes him a dream signing for the Mancunian giants to consider in this transfer period. Hence, it makes sense for Guardiola to move in for a player of Palmer\u2019s quality and skill set ahead of the new campaign.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
